    Made a small purchase today

    Just tell her you bought some books and you got the radios for free. At least that's what I would do.

    Cobra 2000 GTL frequency counter issue

    I don't think the relevant part of that thread is that the guy's a kitchen tech (whatever that is), but the IC that he replaced to resolve his 25.5333 display issue. :LOL:

    Anytone at-5555n II (version 2)

    The AnyTone does not work with EU or RU settings. That's just not how this is done. You can change the channel spacing in the settings. You can also program the channels using a computer if you need the frequencies to be different for your channels. -- Skyline

    HP power supply mod DPS-1200FB-1A HSTNS-PD19

    I had been searching on "DPS-1400CB" :) My guess is that you'll be fine. With these prices it might be worthwhile to take a bit of a risk.

    HP power supply mod DPS-1200FB-1A HSTNS-PD19

    Put the model number in youtube and you should be able to find a few posts on how to modify it. If not, I can link it here. I had this model on my list of looking into it.

    Old School vs New School CBs: Which do you like ??

    Old school. For the CB band, I prefer to use the CB radio that my mom bought for me, a skyline SM 2010. With 22 Channels FM and 0.5 watt using a cybernet board (pbtm117aox). It was broken badly by some idiot teenager about 40 years ago. That idiot was me. About a year ago I repaired it, then...

    Hi, The Sams pages for this radio was posted in this thread by Shummy via the following link: https://www.worldwidedx.com/threads/sams-photofacts-collection.262787/page-65#post-854794 I don't know if it contains everything you need though. -- Skyline

    Dan, Look at my reply to Bob, you already scanned it and provided it in this same thread.. There's so much in this thread already so it is easy to miss. Sorry, I'll try to be more explicit next time and not just post a link.

    Do you live in an Urban, Rural or Backwoods area??

    Living in the Netherlands in a -for Dutch standards- mid-size city (250k), smack in the middle of it. Got a lot of neighbors closeby, but not as many as when I lived in SE Asia. There's loads of man made noise around. On the 11m my s-meter goes rarely below s7 to s9. Had located one source of...

    Head lamp magnifier for eyeglasses wearer

    Figured to ask my elmer what he replaced it with as he's pretty happy with the new one. This is what he's using now: https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256805425325164.html

    Head lamp magnifier for eyeglasses wearer

    It's a fantastic little kit and I've used it many times. As mentioned I got it from a radio amateur down here when he bought a bigger one, so I have no link. There's also no brand on it, it only says "Microscope" :LOL::ROFLMAO: Nothing in the menu either. Pretty sure he got it from AliExpress...

    Head lamp magnifier for eyeglasses wearer

    While the head lamp isn't a bad idea and I probably should look for one myself one day. Personally I prefer a little microscope. I have this one. It's detachable, can change height too. It's no problem putting a PCB under it and solder while it is underneath the microscope. Got it from my elmer...

    Anytone at-5555n II (version 2)

    Oh I just remembered something. Somebody down here asked how he could see the difference between long case and short case. As a result we both ended up measuring our radio's. Turns out he has a short case one. It is probably a good idea to add the measurements of the long case radio to the...

    Anytone at-5555n II (version 2)

    Thanks Pez, much appreciated! Also doubt that I need it, but it is always good to have something you can fall back too.

    Anytone at-5555n II (version 2)

    Hi, I updated my AnyTone AT5555 NII LONG CASE version and am quite happy with it. So while I currently don't want to put the old firmware back, the thing that strikes me is that I do not even have the old firmware. Nor did I see a way to extract the old firmware from the software that was part...

    Transformer coupling

    Been spending more time on it searching and readon on the web. Read somewhere that for a custom coil TOKO would put the numbers of the producer on them. Which might explain why I can't locate the cans I have down here. They are probably custom ones. One thing that's peculiar about those TOKO...
